I would repost that scalie/mechanophile shit that I found on the WoT forum a few months ago, but I dont want to reopen any mental scars :v:

Right as I finish the 12t grind.
THANKS WARGAYMEN
So, I decided to go down the USA TD line and it was going great until I hit the T82. It has nonexistent armor and the starting gun can BARELY penetrate anything in the games you get put in. At least it doesn't take much to upgrade... when does it get better?
[quote]An important fix has been implemented with the server restart that took place recently.
In case vehicle's armour was covered with spaced armour, which was thinner than the vehicle's armour, following situation could take place:
If incoming shells explode next to the spaced armour (or on the spaced armour), all damage caused by the explosion could be taken by the spaced armour.
[B]An example: hitting Tank Destroyer Object 704 with an HE large-caliber shell without damaging it.
This has now been adjusted so that only a part of the damage is absorbed by the spaced armour.[/B][/quote]

Fuck yes, no more zero damage HE hits in tracks and little spaced parts.

Why would they [B]ever[/B] think it's a good idea for the AMX 40 to get into tier 8-9 matchmaking? The thing goes 20 kph on a good day.

The T82 has the 105mm howitzer. At tier 3. It's able to blow shit up with HE easily.
M40 gets the 76 mm AT Gun M1A1, a rapid fire rape cannon.
etc
That's assuming you can hit with the howitzer, because if you miss, you're mincemeat.

Should I be using HE rounds all the time? I just assumed they were more for destroying tracks and other essential parts of the tank, but not for doing actual damage.
I just realized you said you can't penetrate anything with the starting gun.
Are you seriously using AP with the 75mm howitzer?

Howitzers are designed for HE. High damage HE, useless AP rounds.

What? The highest I've seen in mine is tier 7.
The 12t on the other hand...
The T82 can also use the 57mm which penetrates 110mm (!) with AP which is insane for a tier 3.

Yeah, I'm always the lowest tank in the game and it's very difficult to penetrate anything more than the very light tanks and if it does penetrate it does maybe 2-5% damage for each shot. I'll start using the HE.
Oh, and never mind. Just noticed that there is no AP round for the gun I'm using. So I guess it was HE the whole time.
Grind some free exp on another tank and go to the T40. It's not much, but it'll get you past the pain of having paper thin armour on the T82. I don't think I've ever had a really good game on it.
Can someone explain to me why the fuck the 90mm M3 does more damage and has a faster ROF than the 100mm D10T that the Russian mediums have to deal with forever?
The D10T needs a fucking buff or something because that makes no god damn sense.

How is that even possible? The 105 on that thing can oneshot literally 60% of the stuff it gets put up against
I never got to the 105, I went straight for the M40 after the first few games.

Like the T40's armor is any better

Don't get me wrong, its not a terrible gun, but for the fucking reload time it has, ~230 damage is ABYSMALLY bad.
The 90mm M3 also has like .05 better accuracy. What the fuck is this shit?
In case you weren't looking at the news, Clan Wars are changing a little bit
[QUOTE]• At the start of Clan Wars, the clans will be able to move chips on Global Map and first battles will start according to Prime Time.
• The fog of war will be applied to all battles on Global map. That means that both teams will have no information about each other's line-up until they detect enemy vehicles in battle.
• The “tank locking” feature will not be introduced on the North American World of Tanks server.
• The start of battles on the Global Map will be modified. Battles will now start for the day one hour earlier than previously. For example, if “Prime Time” was 6:00PM prior to this change, the new “Prime Time” for the province will be 5:00PM.[/QUOTE]
The Fog of War thing and the prime time changes look pretty damn nice, playing at 11:00 instead of midnight is a lot more convenient. There's something weird though, they're talking about a global map, I thought the global map was only supposed to arrive when the servers merged?

The global map is just what they call the clan wars map.
Always been like that.

I AM SHIVA, GOD OF DEATH
[quote]In January 1944, the Allies found themselves confronting the Winter Line, which prevented them to pass through to Rome. In order to follow the highway to Rome between the mountains, the Allied Forces tried to reach a little town in the Cassino mountains, from which they could have a very good view and a strong defensive position. However, things did not go as planned. The Germans counter-attacked and there were numerous victims.
The Battle of Monte Cassino was a costly series of four battles, which first began on the 17th of January. The appalling terrain was a real problem for the Allied forces, who tried to push forward in these sharp mountains and large river landscapes.
World of Tanks is happy to announce the Mountain Cassino Battle Special this week. More details available soon, stay tuned for updates.
We hope you will enjoy this event.
